Abstract
Communication data streams are transmitted within the scope of a multipoint connection from a first terminal to other terminals. The first terminal distributes communication data streams originating at the first terminal and received from the other terminals involved in the multipoint connection. As a result, each of the other terminals receives the communication data streams originating from the other terminals.

15. A terminal for distributing communication data streams via a multipoint connection between said terminal and other terminals, comprising:
-
a data reception device to receive remote communication data streams from the other terminals, a data distribution device, coupled to said data reception device, for allocation of the remote communication data streams and a local communication data stream originating from said terminal, to the other terminals, so that each receiving terminal is allocated the local communication data stream and any of the remote communication data streams not originating at the receiving terminal, and a data transmission device, coupled to said data distribution device, to transmit the local and remote communication data streams to the other terminals in accordance with the allocation by said data distribution device.
